Admittedly, I have a difficult time finding new bands that I can really get into. One of the more recent exceptions, however, has been a band named the Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio. A co-worker of mine came across a video of them playing at a radio station in Seattle, KEXP, and told me to check it out. As it goes these days, watching this video led to watching another video or two and, before I knew it, I was buying their first record. They released their latest album, I Told You So, at the beginning of this year, and I very much hope that they can keep their momentum going for many years to come.
